The ISAC Control System controls all aspects of radioactive
beam production of the ISAC
facility. It interfaces to the TRIUMF Central Control System which
controls the proton
beam. At the present time, the ISAC control system controls

more than 4500 devices wiith approximately

14000 digital hardware signals

6000 analog hardware signals and

90 motors.

The control system is implemented using the EPICS
control system toolkit.

As shown in the overview diagram, the
system consists of a logically flat topology of Ethernet nodes:
